=== Why It Matters ===
Their pioneering research bridges quantum theory and practical engineering, laying the groundwork for '''quantum computing'''. The team demonstrated how quantum phenomena can exist on a scale large enough to be measured — a feat that transforms computing, cryptography, and materials science.
